criminal history so Walton was charged Friday with a first offence DWI,

Family fortune: Alice is one of the heirs to the Walmart throne

Report: The Parker County sheriff Records for the arrest

Previous news accounts state Walton was
also involved in a 1989 wreck in Arkansas that resulted in the death of a
50-year-old woman.

No charges were filed at that time.

Walton is worth about $21 billion and is the ninth richest person in America, according to Forbes .

Walton purchased her first piece of art when she was about ten years old and this interest led to her spearheading the Walton Family Foundation's involvement in developing Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.

She has spent over $300million building an American art museum in Arkansas, and the facilities alone cost over $100mllion.
